Riley the Ferocious Part Two


One of Riley's favorite toys is the evil red laundry bag. It's really just an old laundry bag of mine with a hole in it, stuffed with shredded paper, and tied in a knot. He loves the stupid thing and it's hysterical when he decides to drag the thing across the floor, especially when he ends up walking on it!

Another Welcome . . . to the cutest doggie ever!!

We have a new friend living with us as of last night! His name is Riley and he's just about the cutest little puppy ever! He's 10 weeks old, part Bichon, part Shih tzu, and has a beautiful mix of white, brown, and black hair. He loves to snuggle and attack his little red squeaky toy. He's also an excellent napper. I'm so in love with this little guy! Here's a video of him and the red toy!

We took Riley to PetSmart today - we can't let him down on the ground because he's still susceptible to the puppy virus, which he can pick up in places with a lot of other dogs. He didn't quite know what to think of the whole thing. He was really scared at first and kept trying to crawl up into my hair to hide. After a little bit, he started to relax and look around him. He especially liked seeing the other dogs. Growing up at a breeders, he's used to other dogs around. He wasn't sure what to think of the two women who fawned over him. At that point, mom was carrying him and he was hiding in her jacket a bit. He then fell asleep in my lap on the way home.

Welcome Young One!


Eric and Kirsten has their baby! Little Chase Nicholas was born on Saturday (2/16), is 7 lbs, 12 oz. and 22" long. He looks like a cutie! He also kinda looks like a grumpy old man! I guess I'm an aunt now. I'm a slacker - Mandy is engaged and Eric's a Dad. Hmm. Whatever - I'll get there in my own time.
